RECENT EVENTS
Navy Aviation Prospect Scheme, NAPS NextStep
On Thursday, September 12, students participated in the Navy Prospect Scheme (NAPS), engaging in a range of physical activities designed to build team-building, leadership, and problem-solving skills. They also had the exciting opportunity to experience a realistic flight simulator, which was a highlight of the day. An informative session followed, covering the application process for defence roles, including tips on preparing tailored resumes and cover letters.
It was a fantastic experience overall, and many students are now considering this as a potential career pathway. For those interested in the LongLook program for Term 4, applications will need to be submitted early in the term. Students will attend weekly sessions and must travel to the base, returning to school for afternoon lessons. This is a wonderful opportunity, so please reach out if you have any questions about this final step in the NAPS program.

The Changing Nature Of Careers
Careers look different to how they used to – once upon a time you picked uni, a trade, or a job, and that was pretty much it for the rest of your working life. Now, tradies get degrees in management, professionals take short courses to round out their qualifications, and around 39% of students work and study at the same time.
Apprenticeships and traineeships are great because you generally don’t need a lot of skills or knowledge when you start, and you’ll get quality on-the-job training as well as classroom based training. Plus, you’ll be earning an income all along the way.
Skilling Australia Foundation found in 2019 that VET graduates had:
- Higher starting salaries – $56k vs $54k for uni grads
- A higher rate of employment – 78% vs 68% for uni grads
- Apprentices had a graduate employment rate of 92%
What’s the difference between an apprenticeship and traineeship?
The main difference is usually the industry – apprenticeships tend to be for more technical trades, while trainees might learn business skills or job-specific skills they need before they can be fully employed. Traineeships are also generally shorter than apprenticeships.
Finding a traineeship or apprenticeship can be a great choice – here’s why:
- You’ll enjoy satisfying and practical work, and in many trades you’ll avoid being stuck behind a desk.
- Get paid while you learn, and start living in the ‘real world’ sooner.
- You’ll probably have a job before you finish, and if you do move employers, you’ll have recognisable skills that make you more employable.
- You generally don’t need great marks to get started.
There are also usually a range of incentives for businesses to take on trainees and apprentices, which means more are available and there will be lots of support to make sure you finish your training.
How do I get started?
First, put together a resume (also known as a list of good stuff you’ve done). Include everything, and get it checked by someone who loves you (they’ll point out the good things you’ve missed) and someone who’s good with writing, like a teacher or family member
Finally, start job searching. You need to go and find them. But it doesn’t have to be difficult – there are heaps of apprenticeships and traineeships in just about every area, including regional and remote places.
Here’s how to search for an apprenticeship or traineeship
Let people know you’re looking. Tell your teachers, friends, or parents (and their friends). Word of mouth is still a great way to get a job.
Search job sites. Simply googling apprenticeships or traineeships in your area will give you a good start. You might also like to try searching popular job sites like SEEK or Indeed.
Look at government websites. Most countries usually have a government website built especially for apprentices and trainees to look for opportunities, including support options and other handy info. Here are some government sites you might like to browse:
- Australian Apprentices
- New Zealand Apprenticeships
- Apprenticeships UK
- Apprenticeship USA
- Job Bank Canada
Find out more
So, if you’d like to earn a good wage, enjoy a secure and rewarding job, and earn while you learn, getting an apprenticeship or traineeship could be the right option for you. And we can guarantee it’ll be a whole lot more fun than spending your life on the couch.
If you’d like more help, or any advice on finding an apprenticeship talk to Ms Arenas. Or you might like to read more resources on the website here.
